Part 27:
Hero looked at Violet in shock as she held the scroll up. Violet then said with a serious face while panting, "We will not...speak of this...ever…"
Hero then finally said after a few seconds, "You...took a scroll from the patrol?!", Hero then looked at Violet right in the eyes and said, "Isn't that illegal?! I may have quit the time patrol a long time ago but I still remember the rules. Which scroll is that anyways?"
Violet then said with a serious face, "I'm well aware of that Hero...that's why I said im doing something I never thought I would do...and I think you can get an idea of what scroll this is", Hero then asked, "H-How did you even get it?", Violet then said, "Im very fast, and very sneaky."
Violet then walked over to the table in the kitchen. Violet then looked back at Hero and said, "You can look at it if you want. I already did, but after you do, go and put it in the secret compartment in the memory room.", Hero then looked at the scroll, and he then picked it up and said, "Okay, I will.", he then opened the scroll, and watched the event that had just taken place.
Violet then started to walk off and she then said, "I'm gonna go check on Rosero.", Hero then said, "I just finished checking on her. She is not doing so well.", Hero then closed the scroll after he was done watching.
Hero then said with a serious face, "I'm going to go hide this now. I may be gone for a bit.", Hero then walked off towards the right side of the house. Violet then nodded and said, "Thank you.", Hero then stopped and looked back at Violet, and he then smirked and said, "Your welcome.", he then looked back and continued to walk off.
Violet then chuckled a small bit, but she then quickly stopped and started to walk off towards Rosero's room.
Violet then made it to Rosero's room, and she then sighed and knocked on the door. Violet then said, "Hey Rosero...You okay in there?", Violet then grabbed onto the handle of the door, and she took a step into the room.
Violet then looked up, and she saw Rosero was on the bed still. Rosero was holding onto a stuffed animal that she had in her room, and she was squeezing it tightly.
Violet then took a deep breath, and she then walked into the room and closed the door. Violet then walked to Rosero's bed, and Violet then said, "Hey...im back.", Rosero did not respond though, she just sniffled a bit, as if she wanted to cry but had run out of tears.
Violet then put a saddened look and said, "Come here baby...let me comfort you…", as she did, Rosero then lifted her head a small bit. She then looked at Violet with a face of pure depression and pain, which made Violet feel worse.
Rosero then rolled over a bit, and she then scooched herself towards Violet. Violet then went on the bed, and she then sat down while on her knees. Rosero then got to Violet and put her head on Violet's lap, and Violet then leaned down and put her arms around Rosero, cradling her.
Rosero then closed her eyes and she then breathed at a calm rate, but she had some stuttering in some of her breaths. Violet then said, "Thats it my little rose...just breath, don't talk yet. Just relax…", Violet then reached her arm over to Rosero's head, and she then started to pet Rosero on the head.
Rosero then put a depressed cheery face, and she then made small sounds.
Meanwhile, Hero was now in a different part of the house, and he was standing in front of an iron door within the hallway. Hero then looked down at the scroll in his hand and thought, "This scroll...it needs to be hidden behind more than just this room.", Hero then looked back at the door.
Hero then looked over and saw a hand scan pad, and Hero then put his hand on the scanner. The pad then beeped green, and the door then swung open. Hero then entered the room, and the door then closed behind him.
Within the room, there were more scrolls on shelves that held the memories of Violet, Hero, and Rosero. Except these scrolls were a gift, they were not stolen. Hero then looked down at the stolen scroll again, and she then looked back up.
Hero then looked over at the wall, and walked over to it. Hero then said, "I need to make sure that this thing cant be found...ever.", he then made it to the wall. Hero then lifted his hand and pressed a certain part of the wall. As he did, the wall then glowed, and then the wall then shifted to the side, revealing a secret room.
Hero then walked into the room, and within the room was another shelf. This shelf only held one other scroll, and it glowed a bright red. Hero then once again looked back down at the scroll he was holding, and thought, "Here should be good...no one will ever find this.", he then placed the scroll on the shelf.
Hero then looked back and exited the secret room. When he did, the door then closed itself, and made itself blend in. Hero then continued to walk out of the room, and the iron door then closed as well the moment he walked out.
Hero then looked down the hall and made his way back to the main part of the house, where Violet and Rosero were at.
Hero then thought as he walked, "This event in conton is a big problem. How long will it take for all this to die down? Is Rosero even safe to go around Conton anymore?", Hero then stopped walking and looked at his hand. Hero then thought, "Will she even be able to work for the patrol anymore after this? I hope Rosero still has a hold of herself here.", he then looked back up and continued to walk.
As he walked, he then put a semi serious yet confident face and said, "Rosero...you are strong. Something like this will break your spirit, but don't let it break...fight my daughter...fight.", after about another minute, Hero then got back to the main part of the house.
Hero then made his way over to the door leading into Rosero's room. Hero then got to the door, and he then slowly opened the door and said, "Hey? You okay in here?"
Within the room, Violet then shushed Hero and said, "She is sleeping, come in but quietly.", Hero then said in a quiet tone, "Oh, my bad.", he then walked into the room and closed the door behind him.
Hero then heard small whistle sounds now that he was in the room. Hero then looked over at the bed, and he saw Violet lying down on the bed with one of her legs dangling off. Rosero had her head on Violet's stomach, and she was asleep. As she breathed out her nose though, Rosero made a small whistle sounds as she breathed out through her nose. Violet then said with a sad smile, "I love it when she sleeps like this...these little whistles are so cute, so innocent…", she then frowned and continued to say, "So innocent...so misunderstood...she does not deserve any of this. Rosero is just a kid, she is just a baby girl...why do they look at her different just because she has different powers?"
Hero then went over to the bed, and he then went on his knees and said, "Well, we did go through the same thing back then, it's just part of life", Violet then looked at Hero and said, "But that was different, we had each other to lean on. But Rosero...she does not have anyone to lean on, she is the only kid in the saiyan clan to have this kind of power.", Hero then sighed and looked down a bit.
Violet then asked after a few seconds of silence, "By the way, did you hide the scroll in a good spot?", Hero then looked up at Violet and nodded, and he then said, "I put it in the scroll safe, behind the secret doorway we have set up in there.", Violet then took a deep breath and said, "Okay...good.", as she did, Rosero then started to whine and whimper, as if she was having a bad dream.
Violet saw this and she then lifted her arm up and put it on Rosero's head. She then started to pet Rosero on the head, and when she did Rosero then stopped whimpering and she then put a cheery face.
Violet then said as she continued to pet Rosero, "No one can know about this...this stays between us three. If they find out that Rosero is the one who caused this...her life would be ruined beyond repair, and she will never be looked at the same again.", Hero then put a face of understanding and said, "I know, I don't plan on letting anyone know.", he then got up and got close to Violet and kissed her.
Violet then said, "Wait, before you go, we need to ask Rosero something. And I mean together.", Hero then raised an eyebrow and said, "What question?", Violet then looked at Hero and said, "This event will have the entire patrol active, meaning Rosero is not safe to roam there anymore. Or at least...not yet.", Hero then put a semi serious face and said, "I think I know what you want to ask her. I was gonna ask the same thing but…", he then just sighed.
Violet then nodded and said, "Its okay.", she then looked at Rosero and gently shook her to wake her up while saying, "Wake up sweetie, we want to ask you something."
Rosero then started to whine a bit, but she didn't wake up. Hero then scratched his head and said, "A bit of a heavy sleeper huh?", Violet then put a saddended look and said, "She must extremely exhausted then, because she isn't usually this deep asleep.", Violet then shook Rosero some more and said, "Come on sweetie, wake up please."
Rosero then whined some more, and after about another minute, Rosero then finally started to wake up. Rosero opened her eyes slightly, and she was blinking at a semi fast rate because she was still sleepy. Rosero then opened her eyes a bit more, and she looked up from the corner of her eyes and said, "Dad?", she then looked in front of her, and saw she was on top of Violet, and she then said, "Mom?"
Violet then put a gentle smile and said, "Yes my little rose, were here.", Hero then leaned down a bit and said, "Sorry to wake you, but we want to ask you something Rosero.", Rosero then looked at the wall and said with a sleepy voice, "What...did you need...to ask?", Hero then asked Rosero, "Well, because of everything that has happened, we think that it is best that you stay home until things calm down. But we don't want to force anything on you, so we are asking you now. Do you want to stay home, or do you still want to…", but Hero was then cut off when Rosero suddenly said, "I want to stay home!", Hero then put a face of semi surprise.
Violet then said, "That was quick.", Rosero then said with a sleepy tone, "I want to stay home. Please let me stay home, I don't want them to…", but as she was about to talk Violet then interrupted her by saying, "Say not more Rosero. We won't force you to go if you don't want to.", she then started to pet Rosero on the head again, and said, "Now go back to sleep sweetie."
As she did, Rosero then made a small whimper, like she was trying to talk but was too tired to talk. Rosero then quickly dozed off, and she now whistled threw her nose.
Hero then stood up straight and said, "I'll leave you two be.", and he then walked out the room. Hero then went to the living room, and he then sat down on the couch and started to think.
Within the room, Violet continued to pet Rosero on the head, and she then put a sad smile as she said, "I love you…"
Rosero slept for the rest of the day, and as she slept she had small tears going down her face as her depression kicked in.
